• Competition: Club Friendly
• Date: Wednesday, 23rd July, 2025
• Kickoff: 12:30 UK / 13:30 CEST
• Venue: National Stadium (Kallang)

For the third year in a row, Arsenal finished in second place, two times behind Manchester City and last season behind Liverpool. However, last season, they weren't too close to the top spot, as Liverpool left them ten points behind. In the Champions League, the Gunners finished their competition in the Semi-Finals, losing to the eventual champions, PSG. During the pre-season, the Gunners were pretty active, and many football pundits believe they have gotten better. However, it remains to be seen if it will finally be enough for the PL or the CL title.

AC Milan had one of their worst season in a really long time. They finished eight - three points away from European spots and seven away from the Champions League appearance. Rossoneri had a chance to save the season through the cup, but lost 1:0 to Bologna in the Finals. So, Rossoneri will not appear in Europe for the first time since the 2019/20 season. Like Arsenal, AC Milan were also active during the pre-season, but we highly doubt they have gotten any better than last season.

Arsenal vs AC Milan pick: Over 2.5 goals

Arsenal weren't particularly great for this bet throughout last season, but that changed a lot in the final part of the season. They went over 2.5 goals in seven of the previous nine matches - 78%!

On the other hand, AC Milan were fantastic for this type of bet. They went 23 times over 2.5 goals in 38 matches (60%), which is the most in the Serie A last season.

In the previous five h2h games, we saw three or more goals on four occasions - 80%.

This is the first match for each team after around two months, and it is hard to predict what we can expect from either team. However, considering all the above, we believe that an over 2.5 goals bet is the safest bet for this friendly match.
